Trivia

In 2016, Gabrielle Carteris (who played Andrea Zuckerman) became president of SAG-AFTRA (the Screen Actors Guild and the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists). As one of her first causes as SAG president, Carteris, who was often singled out for ridicule because she was over a decade older than most high school graduates when Beverly Hills, 90210 (1990) started, took up Califonia Bill AB 1687, which would require entertainment websites and databases (such as IMDb) to remove actors' ages if they request that. When the bill passed, Carteris released a statement saying that the new law would help prevent age-based discrimination in Hollywood and "career damage caused by the publication of performers' dates of birth on online subscription websites used for casting like IMDb."

User Reviews

Beverly Hills 90210 is one of the best drama shows of the 1990's! Especially since this show aired on FOX were most of the good drama shows air. This series is about the lives of a group of high school students living in wealthy Beverly Hills neighborhood, then in the later seasons of the show they move on to their college days as they got older. The kids become friends and enemies, fall in and out of love, and go through an endless series of crises as this small group somehow becomes personally involved in every newsworthy social issue from alcoholism to South African apartheid to pregnancy to AIDS. Jason Priestley was one of the coolest actors on this show and so was Ian Ziering! The best actresses on this show were Tiffani Amber Thiessen and Kathleen Robertson. Tiffani Amber Thiessen was also on another FOX series called Fastlane and Jason Priestley is currently on another good FOX series Tru Calling! I can not believe that this series went all the way through the 1990's! I can't wait until they start putting this show out on DVD!
